Louise Morrish

Louise Morrish is passionate about women’s history. She loves nothing more than discovering the stories of ordinary women in the past who achieved extraordinary things, but whom history has forgotten.

Her dream of seeing her own book on a shelf came true when her debut novel, Operation Moonlight, won Penguin Random House First Novel competition in 2019. Operation Moonlight was published in 2022, and her second book with Penguin, Women of War, was published in March 2025. Louise is now represented by literary agent LBA Books.
